The Boss will be starring in a brand new film that shares the same title as his most recent album release, 'Western Stars'.

Although there's no specific date attached to the opening of the film, it is expected to arrive in theatres this October. However, 'Western Stars' will be premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival that will run from 5th Sept - 15th Sept.

Watch the trailer below.

A press release states that the film will touch on "themes of love and loss, loneliness and family and the inexorable passage of time". "The documentary film evokes the American West — both the mythic and the hardscrabble — weaving archival footage and Springsteen's personal narration with song to tell the story of Western Stars".

'Western Stars' will mark the third film to be released this year that is connected to Bruce Springsteen. The other film that was recently released this month was 'Blinded by the Light'. A couple of months ago, a documentary on Sprinsgteen's New Jersey hometown titled, 'Ashbury Park: Riot, Redemption, Rock 'n' Roll' was released.
